Climate Controls 8-3
On hot days, open the windows to
let hot inside air escape; then close
them. This helps reduce the time it
takes for the vehicle to cool down
and helps the system to operate
more efficiently.
For quick cool down on hot days,
select the following settings
together:
1. Select
H mode.
2. Select
; .
3. Turn the
# on.
4. Select the coolest temperature
and highest fan speed.
5. Once the vehicle's interior
temperature is below the outside
temperature, select recirculation
mode for enhanced cooling.
Using these settings together for
long periods of time may cause the
air inside the vehicle to become too
dry. To prevent this from happening,
after the air inside of the vehicle has
cooled, turn the recirculation
mode off.
The air conditioning system
removes moisture from the air, so a
small amount of water might drip
under the vehicle while idling or
after turning off the engine. This is
normal.
; (Outside Air): Press to turn the
outside air mode on. An indicator
light comes on to show that outside
air is on. Air from outside the vehicle
will circulate throughout the vehicle.
The outside air mode can be used
with all modes, but it cannot be
used with the recirculation mode.
Pressing this button will cancel the
recirculation mode.
@ (Recirculation): Press to turn
on the recirculation mode. An
indicator light comes on to show
that recirculation is on. This mode
recirculates and helps to quickly
cool or heat the air inside the
vehicle. It can be used to prevent
outside air and odors from entering
the vehicle. Avoid using the
recirculation mode during high
periods of humidity and cool outside
temperatures since this may result
in increased window fogging.
If window fogging is experienced,
select the defrost mode.
Recirculation mode is not available
in floor, defog or defrost modes and
will shut off automatically and
change to outside air. The indicator
will flash if the button is selected in
any of these modes. This helps
prevent window fogging and
moisture building up inside the
vehicle.
